Dennis Quaid has been spending more time in Texas to be closer to family, so he recently sold his Pacific Palisades equestrian estate for $9.5 million.
Quaid, who will be staring in the upcoming thriller “Beneath the Darkness,” and comedy “What to Expect When You’re Expecting” originally had the 2,158-square-foot home listed for $16.9 million when it came on the market in March, but was subsequently reduced to $10 million and finally sold for half a million below asking price.
The 8,400-square-foot main house is a French country-style estate, which was built in 2004 and features eight bedrooms and nine bathrooms. There is also a beam-ceilinged living room, a family room, office, a wine cellar and maids’ quarters located above the kitchen which Quaid converted into a fitness room. The grounds of the home also include a private horse and hiking path, which lead to the Will Rogers Park.
A second house and studio on the property contain 2,1580-square-feet of living space with a swimming pool and spa.
According to reports, Quaid, 57, purchased the home after his new wife (who moved from Texas to be with him) wanted a home that wasn’t too “suburban.”
